Engine Coolant Mixture Ratio
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory with a high-quality, year-round and extended life engine coolant. The high quality engine coolant contains the specific solutions effective for the anti-corrosion and the anti-freeze function. Therefore, additional cooling system additives are not necessary.

- When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only a Genuine NISSAN Engine Coolant or equivalent in its quality with the proper mixture ratio. See the examples shown in the figure.
The use of other types of engine coolant may damage the engine cooling system.
- When checking the engine coolant mixture ratio by the coolant hydrometer, use the chart below to correct your hydrometer reading (specific gravity) according to coolant temperature.
